How many planeswalkers can be in a deck?

There's no limit to the number of planeswalker permanents you can have in play! It may hurt your head trying to manage 100 passive and loyalty abilities, but that's completely fair game. The only restriction is that you can't have two copies of the exact same planeswalker card in play.

Can I have 2 planeswalkers in play?

Yes, but planeswalkers have their own version of the Legend rule. You cannot have multiple copies of the same planeswalker, even if they are different cards. So, you can't have two cards that have the type "Jace" for instance, but you can have as many different planeswalkers in play as you can cast.

Can you have planeswalkers in a Commander deck?

Yes, believe it or not. A planeswalker can only be a commander if it specifically states on the bottom of the card, “this card can be your commander.” If it doesn't have that line of text, forget it. Pick a legendary creature instead.

Can you have multiple non legendary planeswalkers?

You can have multiple planeswalkers in play as long as the card name is different. For example: Garruk, Cursed Huntsman and Garruk, Wildspeaker.

What is the planeswalker uniqueness rule?

Who is the unluckiest planeswalker?

The Unluckiest Planeswalker was first depicted in a cycle of Curses featured in Commander 2017, each depicting a different plane. He was later also depicted on Flame Blitz in Modern Horizons 2.

Do planeswalkers enter with double counters?

Planeswalkers will enter the battlefield with double the normal number of loyalty counters. However, if you activate an ability whose cost has you put loyalty counters on a planeswalker, the number you put on isn't doubled. This is because those counters are put on as a cost, not as an effect.

What are the best ways to protect planeswalkers?

Planeswalkers are not creatures, so they cannot directly attack or block. Creatures can attack an opponent's planeswalkers rather than the opponent themselves. Those creatures may be blocked normally, but if not blocked deal damage to the planeswalker instead of the player.

Can a planeswalker be killed by Deathtouch?

Accepted answer #1. Simply, it doesn't. A creature with deathtouch will destroy any CREATURE it deals damage to. Planeswalkers are not creatures, so they take damage like they normally do, i.e. a Deadly Recluse will still only remove 1 counter from a planeswalker if it damages it.

Can you blink a planeswalker and activate it again?

Can you put a +1 on a planeswalker?

Any permanent can have a +1/+1 counter put on it. Those counters won't have any effect unless that permanent is or becomes a creature.
